service will flop if they price it to high. there is already plenty of competition in this market.

What cable service charges $10/month for HD television?

No way this will succeed if it's $50+. For $60, you can get 150+ channels from Dish. Max it should be is $40. $30-35 is even better, but im not expecting it that low.

I don't think Sony wants to go bankrupt.

Sony should just become a high end internet service provider (high end for focus on gaming)

Well I doubt they will be very successful at all if they are trying to compete with Cable when a service like Netflix offers countless TV shows and movies for $10 a month without any ads... The only good thing about Cable TV is that they get some shows faster than Netflix but apart from that, Cable TV has zero advantage over Netflix, specially for that price so if all this is, is that its Cable TV on the internet with similar price ranges, its probably gonna do terribly

Services like Netflix doesn't go bankrupt with its cheap prices, why would Sony go bankrupt? Heck, Cable TV doesn't even have the movies that netflix offers on their standard plans

Sling will be $20 a month. I can pay for that but not paying more for tv.

It's not the movies, but the live tv shows and sports that probably prevent it from costing as cheap as Netflix.
